quotes, and the dates you made them, are there for all to see. People can check
for themselves and they will read that the two questions you asked are
different.It's time you grew up. Cheap name calling like "Howie" and
"Norm" is childish and you are making a fool of yourself. Granted, you are very
good at doing that but it is silly for you to be continually embarrassing
yourself like this.You are throwing insults at me and Noam and anyone
else who disagrees with you. I've been reading back and you even told Angelo
that one of his posts was the stupidist he'd written (or words to that
effect).Let me give you a heads up, Forrest. What you are writing is not
witty or intelligent. It's childish, stupid and silly. You play right into
Noam's hands with that sort of nonsense. People realize that you are ignorant
and bereft of humour. Freud wrote text books equating lack of humour with a lack
of intelligence and it's relevant to you. So wise up, Forrest, and have a laugh
occasionally, even at your own expense. You'll feel better for it and perhaps
your posts will become cheerful and optimistic and thoughtful. Others might want
to read them.Anyway, you are into questions, Forrest, so let me ask you
one. Has anyone ever told you that you are an expert on boxing ? I didn't think
so. |

What a coincidence ! I have seen again the Quarry-Shavers fight on my PC
today. That one was the biggest win in Jerry's career in my book! Heck, Muhammad
Ali' struggled for 15 rounds with this guy! Jerry was even a little overweight
for this fight, at 202 lbs, but still (or yet) he trashed Shavers like he was a
bum! Earnie hit him about three times, but not with full power! Jerry didn't
even blink though. It's one of my favourite fights!I agree that Frazier
would have had a bad time with Inoki, he was too wilt for him. Frazier would
have performed much better against Andre', as "The Midget" was much shorter than
Inoki and much shorter than Joe Frazier as well.Regarding the question
you asked in your previuos post, nobody knows for sure whether the Universe is
endless or not! This is an "everything" question! Sometimes in Physics it's hard
to respond (or to answer) to the "small" questions, let alone the "everything"
questions...What is really amazing is that to be a good Astrophysician you have
to be a master in General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Thermodinamics... In so
many fields. You have to know ALL the Physics (I'm exaggerating a little bit,
but not that much). So much Physics is involved in the Astrophysics
field!!!!!!!!|
|7/6/05 07:27:47 PM|Noam|same||same||||10|MassimoI don't understand how
the universe can be endless. If the universe is not there, what is ? Even if
there is nothing there, then nothing takes up space and nothing could be filled
with something if something came along (if you get my
drift).ForestI'll answer the two different questions you asked.
Yes, if I had a magic wand, I'd wave it and cure Ali. And I'd also use it to
cure all the other boxers damaged by the sport, including Frazier.Have
you heard Frazier speak lately. He is barely understandable. Commentators have
to repeat what Joe says so he can be understood. It is sad and I wish it weren't
so. But even with what you called "smart management" (the rest of us call it
ducking) Joe ended up with a condition similar to Ali.Now, regarding the
second question you posed. I've written this before. I think Ali should have
given it away after he beat Foreman. By then he was 32 years of age and his
legend was secure. And, as I said before, when I see film of Ali speaking at
ringside after that fight his speech is different to what it was years earlier.
I thought I detected damage, but I might be wrong.In your post, Forest,
you mentioned the "unnecessary fights" as being Bonavena, Norton 1,2,3, Lyle,
Shavers, Foreman, Holmes and Berbick.He was only 29 when he fought
Bonavena. It was his second fight back from a three year lay off. He needed a
tough fight to prepare for Frazier 1. It was a necessary fight.The first
Norton fight was reasonable. Ali was preparing for another title shot. He needed
